I got all off into the genetic research behind this, trying to see if it is true, and what in the world, flash reflection from a camera has to do with coats! It was either so confusing to me on that particular day, or my mind was multitasking, but I did actually read the explanation why this is true, and the blue or green reflection is indicative of a genetic propensity for a silky coat...the red or yellow reflection tends to indicate soft or cottony coats....there actually is a genetic componet to why this is true, but I just was not able to get ti straight in my cobbled up brain on that day!
